Gogyoshi Poem, Nr.09 An Assured Journey
This poem is little known
because everything has conspired to keep it secret;
despite this, experience reminds
I can know it and what follows
will surprise the universe as much as me.

I love surprises. I hope the universe feels the same. Wouldn't that be wonderful.
Thoughtful write, Josh.

Thank you BK. Maintaining a balance between 'control' and being open to be (pleasantly) surprised by the universe's responses makes for an interesting journey.

Goodness, lately I feel like all my poems are a secret, from me.... I wish one would pop out and surprise me! Nice thoughtful write; it reminds me to be patient with myself.

Thank you BT. I'm thinking somewhere in the universe the poems are already 'written' -- we just have to remember them. "Patient" is the word.

Seems I'm harboring some deeply held secrets of late.
Glad to see this one sneak into view from you.

Thank you AT. Maybe deeply held secrets provide fertile ideas for poems - in disguise of course :)

Thank you H. I have this feeling the universe is full of wondrous surprises for each and every one of us - if only somehow we humans didn't stick a spanner in the works :))

There is a certain comfort knowing (expected) surprises keep the spirits lifted even when the unknown is ahead. Whatever your travel, I'm sure the adventure will inspire and bring more excellent works.
Excellent work sir.

Thank you Wally. Life is certainly an adventure. I like the idea that we have multiple timelines of possibility and the adventure is in 'jumpimg timelines' to experience a different phase in life. For me, this reduces the stodginess of linear-time and opens the possibility for jumping into a new life where it already has momentum because it is already being lived. (didn't work for my attempt to learn the piano, but I still find it an intriguing idea) :))
